Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Courtland Sutton

Thursday, October 9, 10:56 AM

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram found the end zone for the first time this season in Week 5, but his overall production remains underwhelming. Through five games, Engram has caught 12 of 19 targets for 95 yards and a touchdown while struggling to carve out a consistent role in Denver's offense. Engram continues to split reps with Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins, limiting his snap share to just 41%, which ranks 56th among all tight ends. He also ranks 30th in route participation (53.9%) and 27th in fantasy points per game, highlighting his diminished opportunity in Sean Payton's offense. The Broncos face the New York Jets in Week 6, who have allowed the sixth most fantasy points to tight ends this season, but until Engram's usage increases, he's best left on the waiver wire in most formats.

Although Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will face star cornerback Sauce Gardner and the New York Jets defense, he will likely lead the team in targets as they take the field in London. Sutton has been a consistent player this season, outside of a Week 2 dud, in which Troy Franklin had a breakout game. With averages of 13.5 half-ppr ppg and 16.1 full-ppr ppg coming into Week 6, Sutton is likely the only fully reliable option within the Broncos' core against a defense that typically gets exploited by the run game more than the pass. Fantasy managers should keep him in their lineups as a WR2 with upside, as Sutton comes in as WR15 in the latest RotoBaller rankings for Week 6.
